UML: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT

With CONFIG_VIRTIO_UML=y, GNU ld < 2.36 fails to link UML vmlinux
(w/wo CONFIG_LD_SCRIPT_STATIC).

`.exit.text' referenced in section `.uml.exitcall.exit' of arch/um/drivers/virtio_uml.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of arch/um/drivers/virtio_uml.o
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

This fix is similar to the following commits:

- 4b9880dbf3bd ("powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT")
- a494398bde27 ("s390: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT to fix link error
with GNU ld < 2.36")
- c1c551bebf92 ("sh: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT")

arm, cris, mips, sparc, powerpc, um, xtensa: fix build with bash 4.0

Albin Tonnerre <[email protected]> reported:

Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them.
This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds.
This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes
build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile,
or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh)

Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by
pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the
arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script.

This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where
it is used.

Notes for the different architectures touched:

arm - we use an already exported symbol
cris - we use a config symbol aleady available
[Not build tested]
mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it.
Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by
the linker script.
[Not build tested]
powerpc - removed assignment that is not needed
[not build tested]
sparc - simplified it using $(BITS)
um - introduced a few new exported variables to deal with this
xtensa - added options to CPP invocation
[not build tested]

[PATCH] uml: tidy biarch gcc support

On top of the previous biarch changes for UML, this makes the preprocessor
changes a bit cleaner. Specify the 64-bit build in CPPFLAGS on the x86_64
SUBARCH, rather than #undef'ing i386. Compile-tested with i386 and x86_64
SUBARCHs.

[PATCH] uml: fix biarch gcc build on x86_64

I run an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace (Ubuntu Dapper) and decided to try
out UML today. I found that UML wasn't quite aware of biarch compilers (which
Ubuntu i386 ships). A fix similar to what was done for x86_64 should probably
be committed (see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113425940204010&w=2). Without
the FLAGS changes, the build will fail at a number of places and without the
LINK change, the final link will fail.
